description of what each file contains so that you do not need to

|
|
|
|
search as much. There is also a recommended order for reading them.

public/ - Old build and installation instructions

for the Dmake 4.1 public release. As of Dmake 4.2
|
|
|
|
|
dmake switched to an autotools based build system
|
|
|
|
|
and these instructions are not longer valid for
|
|
|
|
|
operating systems that are supported by the autotools
|
|
|
|
|
system.
|
|
|
|
|
If you are on a system that is not supported you
|
|
|
|
|
might still find some useful information there.

Building Dmake
|
|
|
|
|
==============
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
With autotools
|
|
|
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
|
Building dmake on systems that are supported by the autotools build system
|
|
|
|
|
only requires the usual "./configure && make && make install" command.
|
|
|
|
|
The configure command will notify you when your platform is not supported.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
With Microsoft C++ compiler
|
|
|

|
For MS Visual C++ 6 and up run "make.bat win95-vpp40" in a command shell.
|
|
|
|
|
This should create a dmake.exe in the top-level directory.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
It is possible to rename this to, say, dmake0.exe, delete the objects/
|
|
|
|
|
sub-directory and then simply run "dmake0.exe" to build a new dmake.exe.
|
|
|
|
|
Note that it is not necessary to have dmake rebuild itself in this way,
|
|
|
|
|
but it is a nice test that your new dmake is working to see that it can.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To install dmake, simply copy dmake.exe and the startup/ sub-directory to
|
|
|
|
|
a directory of your choice. You may also want to copy the man/
|
|
|
|
|
sub-directory for future access to the manual page.

All other systems might look in the public/ directory for usefull hints.
